About Stem

Stem is a tiny town located in the state of North Carolina. With a population of 196 people and just one neighborhood, Stem is the 450th largest community in North Carolina.

Unlike some towns where white-collar or blue-collar occupations dominate the local economy, Stem is neither predominently one or the other.

There are especially a lot of people living in Stem who work in office and administrative support jobs (26.85%), food service (12.04%), and management occupations (6.48%).

Also of interest is that Stem has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.

Stem is a small town, and as is often the case with smaller towns, the population isn't large or dense enough to support much in the way of a public transportation system. In fact, there are many rural roads around Stem, which makes walking or biking to and from work a bit difficult. This makes for a very car-oriented town: 100% of residents commute to work by private automobile, and people often drive out of town for work, shopping, and other activities.

Stem is a small town, and as such doesn't have a public transit system that people use to get to and from their jobs every day.
